🎅 Cookies & Claus 5K – A Sweet Run for a Great Cause!

• Finish Line Treat: After you cross the finish line, treat yourself to Mrs. Claus’s famous holiday cookies, made with love and guaranteed to bring a smile.
• Community Spirit: Whether you're racing, walking, or just soaking in the cheer, there’s something sweet waiting for everyone.

👐 Beneficiary

The Bread of Life of Palatka is a nonprofit organization that works to address hunger and food insecurity in Putnam County, Florida. Many are already food insecure, and so many more are just one financial crisis away from not knowing where their next meal will come from. Join us as we run, walk, and laugh our way to the finish line.
